Well since it's up almost everywhere else lol here it is: Since I'm trying to catch up on about a years worth of posts I'll just go ahead and do the slim version instead of showing every single pic. I'll put up a mods list at the bottom so you can get the gist. It's about 99% done, just waiting on a few more fittings and extra nylon braided hose for the coolant lines and oil lines, then just need to make the IC piping and get it tuned.

So without further ado, here she is in fall of 2008:

Mods list then:
GMS chip
SAFC-2 (with single AEM uego wideband)
manual boost controller @ 15lbs
JWT mild cams
K&N filter (that's all the z's intake upgrade consists of. just a filter)
FMIC
2.5" divorced downpipes
2.5" test pipes
2.5" HKS Hiper cat back
RPS 6 puck spring hub clutch
Fidanza LW flywheel
Unorthodox under drive pulley

horsepower was around 400whp on stock turbos, stock injectors with the cams. (have a video of me pulling on a friends pullied 04 cobra that dyno'd a little more than 465rwhp, so around 400-405hp is about right in that range to beat that car.

then on my birthday of 2009 the motor decided to blow. Basically the passengers side was detonating bad, I'm going to assume because the timing was thrown off because the DS head had a much lower deck height then the PS head (which I replaced with an old head when a pin on the JWT cams snapped and bent all those valves..didn't even think to check the deck height). Which then led to this:

fully built bottom end, tig welded counter weight. fully balanced rotating assembly to 12000rpm

BDE top feed fuel rails with modified lower plenum, RC 1000cc injectors, -8an fittings

JWT R5 cams with JUN adjustable intake cam gears

Supertech .5mm OS valves (inconel exhaust, black nitride coated intake), dual valve springs, Ti retainers, Ti seats, manley Ti collets

gasket and port matched lower and upper plenums

58mm CNC'd throttle bodies (vs stock on bottom)

lots of head work, lots of material removed lol. Ported/knife edged intake/exhaust ports, bowl/chamber work, 5 angle intake valve job, radius exhaust valve job, bronze exhaust guides.

custom manual steering rack

garrett GT3071R-WG turbos .64A/R with 14lb wastegates, kit custom build by me.

2 aem uego, 2 EGT, 1 ops, with greddy boost on A-pillar

to

shaved/repainted engine bay (Done fully by me)

sparco mugello steering wheel

I'll post up the full mods list later with more pics, i actually have to run out now :x

enjoy!
